    Has anyone come across these at less than €500 at all? Im getting quotes of €650 upwards :eek:

    It's something i would love but unfortunately those kind of prices just wouldn't be in our budget.

    If anyone has any thoughts id be delighted to hear :D

    6-700 is the price I would have thought, I play in a band and we've been asked a couple of times over the years can we provide but every time I go looking to price it, its prohibitive at that range. They are good though.

    You can get the black and white floor for less than 500.

    I was speaking to the guy from Susie's Candy Cart https://www.facebook.com/susiessweetcandycart at the Punchestown Wedding Fair yesterday and he said that most sparkle floors are around that €700-€800 mark, and said to beware of cheaper ones as a lot of times they're provided by more casual sellers, so lights are burn out/panels don't work.

    Personally I thought he was fab - very honest, upfront, and full of great ideas and vendor recommendations for our wedding! We'll be going with them for our candy cart and dance floor at least! He was offering great discounts for getting a few items :)

    Ok, good to know. Just wondering if that was the average price for them. Unfortunately it's a no go at that price. Ah well.

    If its any consolation OP, while it might have been a "nice to have" I don't think anyone would really miss it if it wasnt there.

    Hi OP, there are some cheaper quotes out there, but singing at weddings i've seen loads too, and the cheaper ones can look kinda cheap. The lights can be badly dispersed throughout the tiles and power is missing from some of the tiles. The cheaper ones also have a yellow glow off their lights.

    We got ours with Ger's Covers and it was around the 650 mark I think, I do think it made the room a lot brighter. But there wasn't much natural light in our room so it helped a lot.

    Maybe give a few places a call and state your budget first, asking if there's anything they could do for you. Good luck :)

    I think it's safe to say that you can get everything cheaper if that's road you want to go down but at what price is too cheap.

    Most times I have enquired the LED dance floor has always been around the €800 mark.

    I have heard about cheaper floors but they are not as secure and come apart disconnecting the lights etc.
